20 Years On And Still Smiling!

Tadarr!

We made it.

20 years of drawing, painting, gluing, sticking, scanning, proofing, picking, packing, sending, stocking, emailing, negotiating, agreeing, apologising, sorting, laughing, crying, worrying, sighing and yet . . . here we are STILL smiling.

It’s been a long old journey, mainly to the NEC carpark and we would like to thank all those who have joined us along the way.

To Team Little Dog, past and present, you guys really do rock. A talented, hard working, honest bunch of gorgeous misfits, we raise our glass and nod appreciatively to you all.

To our customers, past and present, without you, there would be no us and for that we are truly grateful.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Welcome Spring 2018

New for Spring 2018

Collaborations, celebrations, classic collections.

We’ve got it all going on!

These brand new Little Dog gift bags have been created as part of our 20th anniversary celebrations.

The bag features Anna Danielle’s artwork spanning the last 20 years. Every carriage paid order can request a dozen complimentary gift bags whilst stocks last.

Anniversary Gift Bag

Have we got news for you.

If you delve a little deeper into this brochure you will find an exciting new collection supporting the RSPCA. And as it’s our 20th anniversary for all things Little Dog we have some lovely treats coming your way, starting with complimentary 20th year gift bags to make those in store purchases feel extra special.

For one year only we are returning to where it all began with some of the originals or “The Classics” as we now like to refer to them!

This limited edition collection also includes our sepia wash prints plus some new designs to delight those who still have their favourites hanging on the wall.

And then of course there is a plethora of new gift lines including pet bowls, the launch of our “It’s A Good Sign” gift range, a GotY nomination for our Biscuit Club Biscuit Tin, new greeting cards and if none of that takes your fancy you may want to cast an eye over Douglas The Boy Wonder’s latest offerings!

Fingers crossed you’ll find something worthy for your shelves.

IT ’S A GOOD SIGN

GS02

The It’s A Good Sign Collection made it’s debut last year at the 2017 Spring Fair and the reaction has been so positive that one year on we’ve expanded the range from greeting cards into our most popular gift lines. And just as we were putting the final touches to this an opportunity arose to support the RSPCA. So with very little demand on the old grey matter it made perfect sense to combine the two. Which means for the next three years the Little Dog is very proud to be supporting this charity and all the good work that they do.

10% of the wholesale price on every gift line sold within this collection will go directly to the RSPCA. And as it’s our 20th anniversary we had been thinking of ways we’d like celebrate.

So we’ve also added our popular calendars and diaries for 2019 to the cause.

Hopefully we can make these our best to date and raise some much needed funds for the animals in the process.

The Biscuit Club Collection

Every kitchen in a dog loving household needs a t-towel featuring the Little Dog’s furry superstars and their humorous captions to ease the tedium of drying up.

Digitally printed in the UK, the reproduction of Anna Danielle’s original artwork is excellent. Some would even argue it’s simply to dry for!

Biscuit Club Biscuit Tin

To dunk or not to dunk. That IS the question!

Whatever your preference our Biscuit Club biscuit tin (recently shortlisted for a Gift of the Year award) is sure to delight the fans of our canine pals. With a contemporary yet sophisticated colour palette and original artwork circling the whole tin, the only thing missing is your favourite choice of biscuit.

Oh and the answer is definitely dunk, especially with ginger nuts!

The medium bowl bows to the “not to be ignored” yap of the Terrier breeds.

And the small cat bowl bows to no one but does expect only the finest quality of food to be placed within it!

Original Art Greeting Cards

For One Year Only we are heading back in time to where it all began. These sepia water colour and pen designs were created when using a telephone box was the norm, Ginger Spice had just pinched Prince Charles’ bottom, Bill Clinton was denying inappropriate relations and a weird little company called Google had just been launched.

How old?!!!

To mark the occasion of 20 years we are reprinting some of Anna’s “classics” and have added a few new designs for the enjoyment of those who still have the original cards framed in their downstairs loo!

The Scruffy Mutt’s Collection

Our gift lines generally start life as a greeting card and if they prove popular in this format we roll them out onto our popular gift ideas. Now that we are older, uglier and hopefully a smidgeon wiser, we try and keep card ranges to a maximum of 48 designs per collection.

Paw’s Up Scruffy rascal Pablo adores all food and sneaking snoozes in the double bed but he is adamant that baths are completely unnecessary, as are cats!

Each season we pull the slower sellers and replace them with new ideas. This ensures the collection stays strong and fresh and our stockroom doesn’t become overwhelmed with failures.

Anna is still thoroughly enjoying working in this style and with the constant stream of potential muses being sent via email & Facebook there seems little danger of the inspiration drying up. For this we are truly grateful to you all.

Shabby Chic

Smiffy

In loving memory of Smiffy, my brother’s dog who graced Little Dog Towers with his presence for over ten years.

As a pup he was incredibly loving and unbelievably cute.

Then he’d wake up and all hell would break loose.

Smiffy’s bark cut through every nerve in your body and he went ballistic if you said goodbye.The only waking moments of calm came when he was placed in front of a window, either squirrel watching or possibly fascinated by his own reflection!

However it is his mouse obsession that has caused the most problems. In one incident a live mouse was inadvertently carried upstairs in a shoe and placed in the wardrobe where it then proceeded to eat through every shoe and boot in the cupboard.

It tickled me pink to learn that there is an agility competition for dogs called ABC .... Anything But Collies.

They really are in a class of their own.

There is such a good story behind this design so if you have time click on the news section of our website and find the post called “A shaggy dog story to warm the cockles of your heart.”

If you haven’t got time, allow me to introduce Woody & Barney, two Battersea rescues and beloved boys of the Morris family. I sadly never got to meet them but their image has been part of my life for over ten years and this is one of my all time favourite designs.

Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows that if the cat decides to sit on your lap, all chores or tasks are completely out of the question for fear of distrubing the regal feline.

This is Elvis and Heston.

This is how their cat sitter Jane would find them everytime she walked down the street to their home even though they had a cat flap and could come and go as they pleased.

I’m convinced they were in competition with each other to spot her first!
